Letters to Yves

The first edition of this book, in the original French, was published by Gallimard in 2010. The English translation was published by Editions Jardin Majorelle in 2015.

Yves Saint Laurent died on June 1, 2008. Four days later, Pierre Bergé began writing letters to his deceased life partner, as he would continue to do regular basis until August of the following year. Over one hundred letters – from the simplest to the most profound – recall their earliest years together, the daring launch of the legendary fashion house and their love for Morocco. Their fifty years together are distilled in this gem of a book. “So many memories – the good and the bad – run up against one another.”
